In this series of tests aimed to Compare Hydroxamate Collectors namely: AM2 Rinkalore and CTC3 we now conclude. All data indicate the CTC3 is a more selective reagent. In all tests, metallurgy was improved. Nowhere were the results produced by CTC3 inferior to AM2. Although AM2’s Lab Recoveries can look “attractive”, the AM2 reagent shows problematic … Read more
Here is a comparison of two Hydroxamate Collectors used for the flotation of Oxide copper, namely CTC3 from OXFLO and AM2 (AKA Rinkalore) from AXISHOUSE. This report contains a comparison of the scoping test-work done by both suppliers to determine which one is the best Oxide Collector . Test Summary #1 Flotation by Hydroxamate: OXFLO’ … Read more
What is flotation mass pull and why does it matter so much? If we consider the total Plant Feed of 2800 TPD as 100% of the mass and we produce say 59% Cu Recovery or 84 TPD of Cu conc, we would find that 3% of the “mass” is in the concentrate. We therefore label … Read more
